I'm being Policed

Yes. I'm being policed to death.  He joined a Police Tribute band, so the past week, I've heard way way too much "Every little thing she does" "Roxanne" and "message in the bottle"  I'm not a fan of the Police. While I know most of their popular songs, I'm not a fan. I've never owned anything by the Police, and no Police material has ever been found on a mixed tape of mine.

Not a fan of Sting either. At least the singer in this Tribute band can sing. The one in the Judas Priest one leaves a lot to be desired. Apparently I'm a singer snob. I can thank my mom who submitted me to hours of Opera every fucking Saturday while I grew up. I'm really fussy about singers. Usually if I don't like a band it's most likely because I'm not fond of the singer. Two that come to mind are Bruce Springsteen, and Geddy Lee {I hate his voice with a passion}.

So not this Thursday but next Thursday is his debut as drummer in the Police Tribute and they are playing at Bar St Paul in Old Montreal.

Meet the new Drummer

For the Montreal Judas Priest Tribute band Painkiller.

My boyfriend auditioned on Saturday for this tribute band. He's been a huge fan of Judas Priest since he's been 11 or 12 and saw them live many times since. At some point it was his favourite band. These days he doesn't have a favourite band, loves too much music!

In the year I've been dating him, I haven't seen him so excited. It's been years he's been looking for a band to play with and this one meets his expectations.
